A mermaid falls for a prince and trades her voice for legs, in a Czechoslovak adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale.

Sinekatalog’s take

Karel Kachyňa's Czech fairy-tale film, Malá morská víla, is a quieter, sadder and more faithful take than the later Disney version.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
